Uzbekistan ranks 121st in the 2024 Corruption Perception Index
The international non-governmental organization Transparency International released its 2024 Corruption Perception Index (CPI) on February 11. Uzbekistan ranked 121st out of 180 countries, with a score of 32 points on the 100-point scale.
The rankings for Central Asian countries are as follows:
• Kazakhstan – 88th place, 40 points (up 5 positions from last year)
• Uzbekistan – 121st place, 32 points (unchanged from 2023)
• Kyrgyzstan – 146th place, 25 points (down 5 positions)
• Tajikistan – 164th place, 19 points (up 2 positions)
• Turkmenistan – 165th place, 17 points (up 5 positions)
• Afghanistan – 165th place, 17 points (down 3 positions)
The Corruption Perception Index ranks countries based on perceived levels of corruption in the public sector. The ranking is derived from expert assessments and business community evaluations, without considering public opinion. The CPI is based on 13 different sources, each analyzing corruption levels according to specific criteria.
According to Transparency International, a country’s score matters more than its ranking. Nations scoring below 50 points are considered highly corrupt.
The best-performing country in the Eastern Europe & Central Asia region (which includes 19 countries) was Georgia, ranking 49th with 53 points.
Denmark once again topped the global ranking with 90 points, followed by Finland (87 points) and Singapore (84 points).
At the bottom of the list were Syria and Venezuela (12-10 points), Somalia (179th place, 9 points), and Sudan (180th place, 8 points).
